Enough from the guy/gal kissing iad tail. If you really think that people who get railroaded by iad are really guilty, than u need some strong joe to wake up.
I have so much information that I can share but it would take several days to write it all down.
I do however invite you to meet face to face with a few folks over at 376 or records or the gun registration unit. These folks can enlighten you on how a cop can get his/her life turned inside out based on a brick!
Please be safe on your way down to reality.

The writer who is saying that residency is a law is talking out of his ass. It might be a city ordinance, that that can be overcome with union negotiations. However, Chicago Lodge 7 is prohibited from negotiating for this by state law. This does not mean that the mayor and city counsel cannot grant it if they wish. Check your facts.

1/07/2011 05:06:00 PM


Unfortunately you are the one talking out of your ass. The reason the city can say we must live within its boundaries is due to home rule statue from the state of Illinois. That statue states that any municipality with a population over 1 million has the right to make law governing residency of its employees. Therefore if you get the Illinois Assembly to amend this statue the city has no say in residence. It is the state that has given Chicago this power and the state can take it away.
And guess how many cities in Illinois have over a million?
Get the state to amend this and then we will not be giving up something in a asking the city to let us live out of the city.
Next time shut your ass before you open it without knowing what you are talking about.

Had an idea...

How about the "Top Ten SCC Threads Of 201__"???

The top threads would be determined by the amount of posts each one received.

I believe 2010's big winner would be the thread about the Kiddie Kop, while 2011's could probably be claimed less than a week into the new year by the occupants pictured at The Henny Penny POD Motel.

Damn! Just when you think you've seen everything on this job, some pissbums catching 40 winks in a D.C.'s pet project is enough to make you laugh til your light-headed.

Thanks again you clowns in 011......youve got guts, balls and a sense of humor that rivals the best Ive ever had the pleasure of experiencing firsthand in 33 years in this circus. I'd love to buy this officer(s) a few beers...just not 40 ouncers!

Does anyone know if anymore NEW handgun manufacturers models will be approved this year? Also, why were ONLY the 9mm models approved in the KAHR and RUGER models last year? Why not the .45 calibers? The small .45 GLOCK is fine for a concealment gun, but how about more choices. And as long as we are on the subject of guns has it occured to our fine FOP union officials maybe to see if any of the mayoral candidates will just let the CPD have ANY kind of guns without the REGISTRATION FEE imposed on any guns not deemed for DUTY use? If you are in law enforcement, our tools are guns. I used to shoot squirrels with .22 rifles in Ohio where I lived before I came onto this job. That is why I am a crack shot. Now for me to keep that .22 rifle I have to register that gun in the City of Chicago and pay a REGISTRATION FEE even though that is how I learned to shoot to be a police. It would be nice if the CPD can get this GUN REGISTRATION WAIVED for non-duty weapons. What a moronic thing to impose on our own Chicago Cops. I will not hold my breathe for the FOP to do anything though. They have proven themselves to be BIGGER than MORONS.

I was kinda hoping for EB indicted or J-Fled resigning and leaving early. Ah well, I'm going to sleep and have visions of a REAL POLICEMAN taking the helm of my beloved CPD. We so need to put the past behind us and make our family whole again.

How about the income tax increase Bill purposed by the democratic state senate. This would increase the payroll tax to nearly 6%. A family of 4 making $80,000 the middle class gets screwed the most. That's a big portion of our salary. We are tax too much. Florida only taxes payroll just over 1%. And how is it that Florida has no problems with their municipal pensions? Maybe it's a red state?

And since we are airing dirty laundry how about J Kalacky who, as a matter of public record, was arrested for aggravated assault for pulling his gun while off duty on a cab driver while drunk. He was CONVICTED yet the clout baby still has a position with the CPD. Hey Jody, I didn't see him in your last printing of "The Advocate". Daddy was a Commander in 009 (Bridgeport) and he is related to Maurer as well. So Jody/IAD being convicted of pulling a gun on a citizen off duty isn't a fireable offense? I wonder how the VICTIM would feel knowing this KID is still collecting a nice salary to include DUTY AVAILABILITY....hmmmmm.

Fellow Officers,

Think long and hard about the residency issue. They are going to talk of repealing the residency law at the same time they try to reduce our pension. It is a distraction. It is not a fair trade, we will get burned.

They are going to try to bamboozle you.

First and foremost, look at the taxes in any decent suburb. They are terrible. Towns that have comparable taxes to Chicago are not places that you want to live or send your children to school in. Travel times are also atrocious. You get what you pay for in the suburbs too. Towns like Des Plaines, Mt. Proapect, etc... are rapidly filling up with Eurotrash and illegal aliens. These places schools are not places for CPD offspring. You won't be able to afford Highland Park or Glencoe on our salary.

The tuitions you pay living in the city end some day, property taxes in nice suburbs never go down.

The only people who will stand to gain if residency is lifted are the developers. Real estate in decent areas of Chicago which is still sinking in value, will plummet even further. The homeowner will be screwed and the developers who think long-term will make BILLIONS on our neighborhoods.

Do not allow them to fool you, look at the history of Chicago, how neighborhoods have been busted out and redeveloped.

Pension, pension, pension...only issue that matters no matter how much time you have on this job.

This may be long-winded but things are happening that we have no control over and yet we become the victims and suffer the most. This suffering carries over to our family, friends and slowly rots our souls. Politics and pagentry will always rule this profession and we let it eat away at the fibers of each of us. WHY?

Ladies and Gentlemen, we might not be able to change the 'job' but we can change the way we do it. We can change our attitudes and make this job fun again. Fuck all the higher ups who forgot, or never knew, what it meant to be a copper. Fuck all the stress and negitive bagage that comes with toting that type of toxic garbage around with u us. It only adds to our problems, nothing good comes from it...NOTHING!

Life is too short to have to work for the rest of it. It doesn't have to be work, it can be fun again. And if you don't respect your job, why should dude? We change our attitudes, we change the whole system and take our department back from the intrinsically stupid, ill-prepared, rev-run selected fools who know less than nothing. Why let them ruin you? Why give them an ounce of your thought? Why destroy what's left of your sanity because they make stupid calls?

It's merely toxic runoff from toxic people. So let it runoff and keep your attitude intact and the rest will follow. There's no doubt morale sucks! Which in turn makes this job suck. Which in turn makes your life suck because going to work sucks and the cycle of sucking engulfs your soul. Stop the cycle! Let's embrace a better attitude and see what happens. I bet things improve almost overnight. You don't know until you try. Hell, we've tried the sucky stuff to death and it has only hurt us. Fuck them. Let's do this 'job' for us and make it fun again.

You can attack this all you like, I expect that type of response. It's been far too long since we had fun here. Don't dismiss it too quickly. Let it sink in and put some thought to this idea before you bash, trash and commit to negitivity. It's not too late. I miss having fun and I'm tired of coming home angry, disappointed and feeling helpless/hopelss about this job.

It doesn't cost a dime, it doesn't take anything but a conscious effort to change your mind. They cannot control that, only you can.

May as well work 1st watch. Unfuckin believable! What was wrong with the old starting times? Hell, even an 0600 (early cars) and (0800 late cars) makes much more sense. For every person I know who likes these starting times, I've heard 4 say they suck. What can be done to possibly get the old times back. I know I'm likely just pissing in the wind, but why not ask?

J-Fed at his best!!!

Last night the Apostolic Church held an appreciation ceremony for police and fire. It was a nice ceremony and the members of the congregation showed their appreciation for the job we as police officers do.

There was a large number of exempts that attended including the Superintendent. All except J-Fed were in uniform. J-Fed decided that the proper attire for a recognition ceremony in church was blue jeans, a mock turtleneck and the new police fleece uniform jacket.

This was a slap in the face to the members of the church who went out of there way to make everyone there feel welcome and appreciated.

As soon as the service was over J-Fed RAN for the exit! He didn't stop to thank anyone from the church for their hospitality nor did he thank the members of CPD for attending.

Dozens from the congregation commented about the attire and quick departure of the Superintendent.

March 1st can't come quick enough!!!

Regarding the Next Supt....
Just exactly who on this ship of fools and in Exempt rank is qualified to run CPD? Think hard...Triple merit promotions for the last 20 years or so. I cant think of a one I would feel comfortable with. Most with connections to the current Mayoral/Aldermanic administration?
We just might need another civilian to force another round of exempt retirements to purge the ineptness and inadequecies of current management.
Meet the new boss...same as the old boss...

Those Commanders have to serve a little longer than you think. Because they were forced/ volunteered to take unpaid days (approximately 60) they will have to work that many more before becoming vested. So as you guessed, some of them may not make it.

My bet; Roussell is the first to get launched!

To the 009 district copper who gave me a ticket just before Christmas for standing on 3300 block of Morgan (beat 924)at 9:15 on a Saturday morning. You are a coward. You drive by in your car and send me a ticket by mail! I was sitting in the drivers seat of my car the entire time. You didn't have the courage to tell me to move or hand me a ticket in person. Where you afraid that this old man was gonna tell you what an asshat you are? I was a police officer for over 20 years in the military and I would never have done what you did. You are a Weis trained coward. I have no doubt that you run away from shots fired calls and only respond to call when you are sure someone else will be on scene before you.

If you had half a brain you would have seen the spare tire on the front of my car and knew I was in line to get a flat tire fixed. But no, you drive by and don't say anything. Yes I saw you but you didn't say anything to me. Why didn't you have the courage to just hand me the ticket in person? You are a COWARD!

Yes I was wrong sitting there waiting for the tire repair shop to make room to repair my tire and if you had the courage to hand me the ticket in person I would have been pissed but I would respect you for doing what you thought was right. But to get a ticket in the mail! That is cowardly. Don't say I pulled away either because my car was pulled into the garage and I was there for 30 minutes after waiting in the street to pull in.

You are what gives the real police a bad name. You are fortunate that you are employed by a department that has a large number of real police officers so that you have someone to protect you. You should go work as a Traffic Management Aide instead of CPD.

To all the real police, thank you for keeping us safe. And thanks for keeping this coward safe. Don't count on him backing you up though as I have no doubt that this coward runs the other way.

Personally I live in a condo in the city and love it. I don't know if I'll ever move, but it sure would b nice to have the option to not be trapped in Chicago. I don't even know what kind of moron u must b to think it would b better for all of us if they didn't lift residency.

Once Jody "Kelso" Weiss (Kelso- That 70's Show clone) is gone, whoever becomes Mayor will just put his 'Tool Supt' in anyway. It will be a politically correct choice, not a person who can or will be allowed to pull the CPD out of its collapse as a legit law enforcement agency. It will be business as usual in Crookago, so don't hold your breath. The Democrats have looted and bankrupted the City, County, and State.

"I for one don't want the residency rule lifted either. While it would be nice to be able to live in the suburbs away from this city, the suburbs aren't getting any better since we shipped all of the welfare sucking project rats out there. On top of that, an already crippled housing market would get even worse because everyone would be trying to sell and leave. Who exactly is going to buy your house? Our housing prices in this city would really plunge then. Like they always say, be careful what you wish for."

Economists warn of housing double-dip in 2011

By Hao Li | January 5, 2011 3:52 PM EST

"Housing remains a troubled sector in the economy even as recovery in other areas are picking up steam.

"Instead of improving, housing has actually taken a turn for the worse as the S&P-Case-Shiller index, a leading indicator of housing prices in the U.S., has continued to slip in the latest readings. Houses in six metropolitan areas -- Atlanta, Charlotte, Miami, Portland, Seattle, and Tampa -- actually fell below their 2009 lows.

"Some economists are warning that housing prices in general could double-dip and the price declines may accelerate in 2011..."

To the poster about residency: I have a house on the nw side and will gladly sell it immediately and move to the suburbs if residency is lifted. I have 2 kids in high school and a third in jr high. Currently iam paying $30,000 a year to send my 2 high school kids. Each kid is $15,000 a year. If I move to the suburbs, I will save $180,000 on high school alone. The cost of increased property taxes and travel time would never amount to that. In addition, I would move to DuPage Co. And transfer to work in 015. The travel time wouldn't be that bad. Quit being afraid of residency. Not everyone would move out. That's the reality of residency. Its not going to be gloom and doom.

Why do you think there is constantly so much upheaval in our cities?

Stability is the enemy of the speculator -- whose motto is "It doesn't matter whether it's going up or down as long as it's going." They "take a position," the property "passes through their hands," and some of the money sticks.

Some feel that they have a divine mandate to constantly "re-make the world;" you will find the same people behind any destructive "social engineering" initiative that causes change, disruption, movement, expense -- be it the destruction of manufacturing, a flood of illegal immigrants or an Olympics.

How about the income tax increase Bill purposed by the democratic state senate. This would increase the payroll tax to nearly 6%. A family of 4 making $80,000 the middle class gets screwed the most. That's a big portion of our salary. We are tax too much. Florida only taxes payroll just over 1%. And how is it that Florida has no problems with their municipal pensions? Maybe it's a red state?

Shouldn't they have been given the option to work their RDO first? Is their a grievance brewing here? Who gets left holding the bag when the dust settles?

DON’T LET THEM MESS WITH THE PENSION!! Residency is a crock- they are going to dangle the carrot in front of us, we can't bite. Bait and switch is the art of their profession. Look at our medical contributions. Healthcare was free for all of us until they gave us a miniscule pay increase in exchange for a $1, yes one dollar payroll deducted healthcare contribution. Look at what it is now! $100+ per paycheck. From one dollar to one hundred plus for the family plan. If you give them an agreeable inch on the pension, we will SOON be paying tenfold+, and having the payout altered and cut. DO NOT accept any negative alteration to the pension. None, nothing, nada whatever it takes for you to understand. They will be showing you a diamond in the rough in order to get you to think you’re going to get a jewel. YOU WILL END UP WITH THE LUMP OF COAL IT WAS SUPPOSED TO COME FROM. Most of the politicians and their money men are swindlers by trade and develop the practice into an art form. Don't bite at the pension reform; don't bite at the residency change it's a con job. Where you gonna go anyway? The animal is everywhere. Save rural USA for your retirement! Look at the 4/2 schedule. It's better than the 6-day, but you lost your 3-day weekends and spend an extra hour at work every day, just to bring your days off sooner. No more three consecutive days off, only one, two-day weekend off every seven weeks, and if you need time it costs you nine at a pop. Pretty piss-poor trade. Yep, got swindled again, just so the City and their money men can force you to use all your time on the books before retiring so they don't have to pay you. We only have a few more toes to shoot off before we're crippled.

WRT: Illinois State tax increase of 2.25%

The illusion of tax breaks.

Washington had given us the "Make Work Pay" tax break of up to $400 as a stimulus for the economy in 2009-2010.

That tax break expired and now Washington creates another stimulus by reducing our FICA social security tax by 2% this year.

However, Illinois politician have to find a way to get their hands on that money and feel that the taxpayers won't notice as you don't miss what you never had right?

In other words, the Illinois tax hike of 2% takes away the Washington stimulus of 2% and the money is essentially being taken out of the taxpayers social security fund.

It's a pension theft like the police pension theft.

People that were expecting to take home a little more money will be taking home less money instead.

Not only do they lose the "Make Work Pay" money, $400 dollars, there's an additional state tax to pay now.

Follow the money trail people!

Why should the middle class taxpayers of Illinois allow their social security money to be taken away to fund the cities pensions that the politicians did not properly fund?.

I expect to see this tax rate reduced shortly as the politicians will present themselves as hero's. You know..." we thought that we would have to raise the taxes by "x"% but we fought for you and now it's being raised only "y"%

It's b.s.

How about some pay cuts for the mayor, the alderman. Why do we need 50 alderman? NYC, LA for example get's by with much less. Trim there's staffs' Cut their budgets. Cut the legislators pay and stop holding the teachers and the little doe-eyed children as hostages for more tax increases.

1/08/2011 05:35:00 AM


Those Commanders have to serve a little longer than you think. Because they were forced/ volunteered to take unpaid days (approximately 60) they will have to work that many more before becoming vested. So as you guessed, some of them may not make it.

My bet; Roussell is the first to get launched!

1/08/2011 09:11:00 AM

===================================
I'm not sure that is correct. I was told that as long as they pay thier portion of the pension money had they worked those days it will count towards thier time in grade.
I was also told that they could take the money from defered comp without having to pay a penalty.

Maybe someone from the pension board can clarify this up for us.

Ah, the residency question. A politician who claims he is "open" to discussion about it means he wants to curry city worker favor before an election and at contract time will propose it, in exchange for a 10-20% paycut. Think I'm joking? Chico has already stated that he would be willing to take a paycut, whats good for the goose is good for the gander. They aren't going to let this tax base get away without major compensation. For those of you with kids in school, there is a short term reward for living in the suburbs. $180,000 in education might be worth the hit you take on the house, but get ready to move right after they graduate because that 10-15,000 a year in north suburban property tax isn't going to be worth it without a kid in school. Residency is lifted, Chicago prices go down AND suburban prices rise simulataneously. All I'm saying is that its not a clear cut issue and not a no-brainer and in truth will divide pour ranks more so than anything has ever done so in the past.

“The taxpayer: That’s someone who works for the government but doesn’t have to take the civil service examination.” – Ronald Reagan.

Do Illinois Democrats hate the private sector? Yesterday, they put their cards on the table.

They want to hike our taxes by 75%- a NEAR DOUBLING of the income tax!
They will increase the corporate tax rate to 10.9% the second highest in the country! On top of all this, they plan to increase spending and borrow up to $20 Billion more!

Call your state representatives. Look up their name and phone number.

http://www.elections.il.gov/DistrictLocator/DistrictOfficialSearchByAddress.aspx?utm_source=Illinois+Policy+Institute&utm_campaign=e86132fa5a-Tax_Hike_Alert1_6_2011&utm_medium=email


No Republicans should vote for the tax hike! MAKE DEMOCRATS OWN IT.
While Illinois families and businesses suffer, it’s a bull market for Illinois insiders.
If a Republican votes to hike our taxes, they need a primary challenge. For heaven’s sake, even President Obama recently got temporary economic religion on the tax issue.

On the five borders of Illinois, every business is doing a similar calculation and coming to the same conclusion. The Illinois Democrats hate the private sector.

Republicans need to engage the people of Illinois. They could start with aggressively pushing to limit government. Citizens are ready to support constitutional spending caps, property tax caps, and term limits. They will support transparency and accountability through independent audits that investigate fraud where any hint of it is found.

Make the Democrats defend their opaque and corrupt culture of patronage spending. Rub their noses in the deep doo-doo they’ve plunged Illinois into. Make them own it.

Another chuckle for the day……..

A priest and a rabbi were sitting next to each other on an airplane.

After a while, the priest turned to the rabbi and asked, 'Is it still a requirement of your faith that you not eat pork?'

The rabbi responded, 'Yes, that is still one of our laws.'

The priest then asked, 'Have you ever eaten pork?'

To which the rabbi replied, 'Yes, on one occasion I did succumb to temptation and tasted a ham sandwich.'

The priest nodded in understanding and went on with his reading..

A while later, the rabbi spoke up and asked the priest, 'Father, is it still a requirement of your church that you remain celibate?'

The priest replied, 'Yes, that is still very much a part of our faith.'

The rabbi then asked him, 'Father, have you ever fallen to the temptations of the flesh?'

The priest replied, 'Yes, rabbi, on one occasion I was weak and broke my Faith.'

The rabbi nodded understandingly and remained silent, thinking, for
about five minutes.

Finally, the rabbi said, 'Beats the shit out of a ham sandwich, doesn't it?'

Unfortunately you are the one talking out of your ass. The reason the city can say we must live within its boundaries is due to home rule statue from the state of Illinois. That statue states that any municipality with a population over 1 million has the right to make law governing residency of its employees. Therefore if you get the Illinois Assembly to amend this statue the city has no say in residence.


Are you forgetting the lil peice of paper you signed going into the academy agreeing to residing in the city?? The legal document you signed!!

Let's see, 16 years of Jim Thompson, Republican. 8 years of Jim Edgar, Republican. 4 years of George Ryan, Republican. 6 years of Blago, Democrat. And 2 years of Quinn.

Republicans - 28 years
Democrats - 8 years

Why didn't the Republican do as you suggest during their 28 years in office since 1977? 28 years out of the past 36. I''m no Democrat but the facts are plain, Republican ran Illinois for 28 out of the past 36 years.

If Democrats get their noses rubbed in doo-doo, what do the Republican rub their noses in?

Ever hear of the Illinois Combine? Read John Kass and get an idea. Democrats are as good/bad as Republicans in this state. Chest thumping aside, they are all full of shit.

You drive by in your car and send me a ticket by mail! I was sitting in the drivers seat of my car the entire time. You didn't have the courage to tell me to move or hand me a ticket in person. Where you afraid that this old man was gonna tell you what an asshat you are? I was a police officer for over 20 years in the military and I would never have done what you did. You are a Weis trained coward. I have no doubt that you run away from shots fired calls and only respond to call when you are sure someone else will be on scene before you.

If you had half a brain you would have seen the spare tire on the front of my car and knew I was in line to get a flat tire fixed. But no, you drive by and don't say anything. Yes I saw you but you didn't say anything to me. Why didn't you have the courage to just hand me the ticket in person? You are a COWARD!

Yes I was wrong sitting there waiting for the tire repair shop to make room to repair my tire and if you had the courage to hand me the ticket in person I would have been pissed but I would respect you for doing what you thought was right. But to get a ticket in the mail! That is cowardly. Don't say I pulled away either because my car was pulled into the garage and I was there for 30 minutes after waiting in the street to pull in.

You are what gives the real police a bad name. You are fortunate that you are employed by a department that has a large number of real police officers so that you have someone to protect you. You should go work as a Traffic Management Aide instead of CPD.

To all the real police, thank you for keeping us safe. And thanks for keeping this coward safe. Don't count on him backing you up though as I have no doubt that this coward runs the other way."

What a pimp move. In 13 years on this job I've never given anyone a ticket other than to hang it on their window or serve it to them personally. Isn't what this asshat did a violation of general orders? Being a retired PO you know this type of cop. He's the same one that smacks your prisoner when the cuffs are on.

Those PPO's coming over to 011 were not on any bid. Their 18 months are not over yet, but since they are done with their training cycles, they are being moved around to other districts.

They're done with training 101 and being enrolled in training 201.

To the MSF Sgt, JC, if you have something to say to KPR, have the balls to say it to him.
He never claims to be the smartest, but he does look out for the coppers that work for him.

I could go on but my point is that a lot has changed since I signed up for the CPD. The City has no problem changing things for their benefit so why not change residency for our benefit?

1/08/2011 06:39:00 PM

Just because you want to move does not mean all po s want to live in a suburb. Taking this job you agreed to live in the city and signed off on it. Couldnt wait to be called and would have kissed the mayors feet if asked.
All you cry babies quit whining. NO ONE is stopping any of you from quiting and moving your family to the suburbs,or out of state for that matter. Find another job and move and shut up!!

1/08/2011 10:38:00 PM


...........

If residency is dropped it does not mean YOU have to move. You sound bitter. And no, we do not have to shut up. There is nothing wrong with trying to make the job better for all of us. Using your logic we should all still be making 16,000 a year.

I hate the newest 2nd watch starting times. Who the hell concluded 0500 is a good start time? WTF! Who the hell wants to wake up at no later than 3:30 am to make roll call? May as well work 1st watch. Unfuckin believable! What was wrong with the old starting times? Hell, even an 0600 (early cars) and (0800 late cars) makes much more sense.

Hey Kevin Jans, we thought that was you just looking out for yourself again! We in 019 haven't forgotten the day when you came to roll call and told us that YOU voted to fuck US....I will give you credit, at least you had the balls to tell a room full of guys with guns that you fucked us! Asshat!!

Since this is an open post...I would like to thank the female/4 off duty cop living near 99th and levant for providing my daughter with all of her worldly knowledge when she was involved in a traffic accident with the big ambulance! That's wonderful you heard the siren from inside your house...how about asking if my daughter was ok? Oh, maybe you never heard the render aid first part in your training. Yes my daughter evidently failed to yield the right away at the four way stop...her car was totaled with her in it. Thank god, the paramedics said they weren't hurt and the goof in the back with 5 shots in him apparently survived. Next time stay in your house if your not a witness. A real thank you to the officers who handled the accident, made sure she was ok and gave her the ticket! She's at fault and we understand. Thanks again....oh and to the paramedic who said he was ok, walking around...thanks for the law suit! We have insurance, everything will be covered...but nothing good comes from bad money! Retired Sergeant. And don't worry about me...her dad is rawly pissed! Lol

1/09/2011 12:08:00 AM
You're welcome and just what makes your "goofy daughter" so privileged ? You said it your self that your "goofy" daughter ran the stop sign and caused an accident, funny you never mentioned if the other party involved was injured. No sympathy here...take your meds madam this

Just to clarify...The MT who wrote that message on SCC is not the MT who is currently MSF deskbound. MT has absolutely no quarrel with Sgt JC or any other boss in MSF. A few officers are a different deal... How do I know?

Because I AM the heavy metal lovin', one and only "Purple Shades" and I always sign my name. I've had the nickname since my old days in 009. For the record, I no longer wear the prescription sunglasses issued to me before I was "boots on the ground" in Afghanistan 2004 now. Wore 'em proudly from May 2004 to January 2011. Helluva run!!! If you truly know me, or worked with me, then you know I speak the truth! See you ALL outside again next month...Til then- Keep rockin'!!! Bleed Black... Bleed Blue... \,,/

FOP President Candidate Patrick Murray has a very interesting video with Alderman Burke about the pension on Youtube (search Alderman Burke-Pat Murray). It seems that Alderman Burke/Patrick Murray want to use a land base casino to help fund our pension!! Maybe we need a guy like Patrick Murray who has access to the political movers/shakers...Please view this video and lets get some FOP President election dialogue going...

Same Ed Burke that doesn't pay our IOD bills and gets kick backs like every other alderman. Is this Pat Murray slow?

Just a note. Heard Rahm's idea of fighting crime is cadets on desk duty and limit sick days. To those who support him, think twice.
So once again, instead of going after the few abusers, 100% will suffer. The ones that dont abuse, may unfortunately need this, oh well too bad!!
How about fighting crime and not blaming the police officers!!
